The Girl With a Guitar

5. Untrue Words

(Liv, Mum, Both.)

"BEEP BEEP BEEP!"

"Ughhhh I don't want to go to schoool! I'm so tiiired, let me sleeeep!"

"Nope, no way, get up."

"Don't you dare take my blanket off of me.. And don't even THINK about dragging me out!"

"I'll take away your amp."

"Go ahead, I've got an acoustic"

"Okay, I'll take both your guitars and hide the coffee as well, then."

"ALRIGHT I'M UP, I'M UP!"

"Good."

"Wait... Did you actually impersonate an alarm clock..?"

"Perhaps..."

"And you call ME Aud"

"It's Auds now, so shut up"

30 minutes later, Liv, Grace and I are up the back of the bus, catching up before Liv goes to Queensland for a couple weeks in the next few days.

The bus pulls up to the bus bay and we tap off, jumping off the bus, each of us having heaps of energy, despite how hard it was to get me up this morning.

We all walk into school and find a spot to sit down that doesn't have disgusting year 7's crawling all over it. I hate those..Things... and before you say anything, no, it's not mean to call them "things", they're little shits, they've got no respect and they say worse things than that, so they deserve it.

We see Abigail, Lilith and Katrina walking past, talking to 2 others, well, more like whispering, each of them giving us horrible dirty stares. That alone makes me want to knock them dead, but I restrain myself, and Grace and Olivia must've seen me clench my fists because they started getting ready to hold me back, which wasn't necessary... This time..

We keep on talking after they'd passed and I'm doing one of my favourite things ever, annoying my 2 best friends. I keep quietly mimicking Grace, and keep copying Olivia's body language. I'm really getting under their skin and it's amazing.

A few minutes pass and I'm still being an asshole to them, only now they're doing things that bug me as well, poking me, tugging little strands of my hair, squishing me, tryna push me off the seat, etc. I decide I'll stand up and kneel behind them so I can tie their shoelaces together. I know how to do a pretty quick knot so I can get away with it and run. Neither of them are very coordinated with themselves, let alone with another human being.

I casually stand behind them, waiting for the right moment, then I strike. I kneel down and tie the quick knot and I bolt. I glance behind me to see if they've fallen over each other yet and surprisingly, they're still standing. But I'm not. When I turn around, I realise I'm heading straight into a group of people and take a hard left, slipping and tumbling. How embarrassing.

Well that backfired. I stand up and brush myself off just as Olivia and Grace come around the corner, crying of laughter. I shoot them both a death glare and then pout. Welp, they're never going to let me forget this.

As they untie their shoe laces the bell goes. Grace goes off to her class and Liv and I grab our stuff and head up to pastry chef, our first period.
